What is a sitemap? A sitemap is a exactly what it says, a map of pages you want the search engines (and people) to know about. Generally they are for search engines to quickly read and index your site. A sitemap is more important for a new website or for a site with poorly designed navigation. But it is widely...
What is Robots.txt Robots.txt is a file that provides crawl instructions about your site for search engines (bots that crawl your site). It can be used to 1) restrict which directories bots “should”*** not crawl, 2) tells the bot where your sitemap is located.

Run these: sudo apt-get install build-essential What is wrong : a Debian Server install intentionally does not contain development tools for security and efficiency reasons.

The method here works in real-time because Fail2ban reports directly to the MySQL on the control server. On each remote you’ll want to...
I should officially call this page /about-yacy but (SEO) I know when I wanted to know more about YaCy it was because it kept crashing. So you’ve found yourself here for the same reason this page exists. I hope I can make it easier for a beginner, given that I am probably more ordinary, especially compared to the developers. Since...
